It is a good question to ask, but I'm hoping this is just a small detail in your decision, not a major factor. All VCs will bring money. All VCs will push the leadership to make high-risk/high-return decisions in hopes of driving large exits. If you are likewise wanting a high-risk gig for a large exit, you are on the right path. But if you are looking for more of a stable long-term gig with people and a product you like.... VC-driven startups might not be the right answer.
